My masters studies preclude me from posting on the Boston jihad as much as is needed, but with the brilliant analytics of my dear friend Billy Rojas you can read the latest here.

The Specter of Islam By Billy RojasA specter is haunting America, the specter of Islam... The two brothers responsible for Boston bombings were Muslims. Is anyone really surprised ?

What we have is a fifth column in America, each and every Muslim who lives in the United States. Obviously not because each is capable of acts of terror; that clearly is not true. What is true, however, is that all true-believer forms of Islam, which means all forms of Islam with few exceptions --primarily some Sufi groups and Ahmadiyyat-- rely exclusively on the core text of their religion, the Koran, for their deepest and most sincerely held moral values. And the Koran is filled with passages that promote hatred of non-Muslims and also filled with passages that promote violent jihad as the preferred way of dealing with kufirs --"infidels." This means you and me and your family and friends and neighbors and the vast majority of your fellow citizens.

I know all about the qualifications we might make. However, it all boils down to one fact more than any other : Those Muslims who take the Koran most to heart, who actually have read Muhammad's book, know very well that their religion incites lethal violence against non-Muslims, that their religion demands that non-Muslims should be intimidated into submission to Islam, and that all non-Muslims are regarded as inferiors deserving, at most, begrudging second class status in society, a status with various liabilities as part of the order of things,or, in other cases, non-Muslims are regarded as deserving death.

Hence the bomb blasts in Boston just days ago.

We are fortunate that most Muslims have never read the Koran except maybe a few passages here and there. But do you really want to bet your life on this situation continuing forever ? What happens when most Muslims have read the Koran ? Two additional points to make : ( 1 ) The preferred narrative of the media and the Obama administration, to the effect that Islam is a peaceful religion that has been hijacked by extremists who misrepresent Muhammad's faith, is based on almost as much ignorance of the Koran and of historical ( real world ) Islam as typifies most Muslims generally. It also fits in with the pattern in America of most Christians and Jews being unfamiliar with all but the most well-known for-the-public themes found in the Bible, missing most ( most ) that is normally regarded as essential to any kind of authentic faith. The media and the White House, in other words, have vested interests in everyone's ignorance. The media and White House want to protect the preferred status of ignorant people in determining public policy toward Islam. Do I need to repeat this principle ? Let me say the same thing in somewhat different words : Journalists --with almost no exceptions-- and our highest elected officials, also with very few exceptions, are essentially ignorant of the true nature of Islam. Rather than making themselves informed, they go to extreme lengths to double down on the false narrative about Islam that, so far, they have been able to con most people into accepting as "truth." This is all based on nothing but ignorance. ( 2 ) Others have a vested interest in "saving face." This is to refer to majorities of the population. They, too, are basically ignorant of Islam even if, compared to 2001, not nearly as many as was true back then. In the case of the majority, however, clearly, at a minimum, 2 out of 3 people, because they are clueless about religion in general and Islam in particular, they reflexively "explain" violent actions by Muslims with reference to what they do know. Hence the "real" reasons for the Boston bombings is said to be the "troubled backgrounds" of the bombers, or psychological quirks due to their being alone in America as immigrants with no families to relate to, or because of difficult economic circumstances, or because of bad influences from popular culture, and on and on, ALL of which misses what is most essential to the case for all Jihadists : Their fervent beliefs in Islam, their desire to be committed Muslims, and their absolute faith in the Koran as Allah's ( God's ) actual presence on Earth in the form of his words enshrined in book for all humanity to worship as the Final Truth.

Sorry if you have never studied religion, sorry if you regard religion as obsolete and beneath your dignity to take seriously, and sorry if you follow some secular ideology that regards religion as irrelevant, but the fact is that some people take religion very seriously, indeed, and also the fact is that this reality is a social phenomenon that merits serious research just as much as any other mass scale social phenomenon. That is, if you are ignorant of religion, and in this case especially about Islam, then you are in the same position as someone during the Cold War who was ignorant of Marxism, or of someone in the 1940s who was ignorant of the realities of Fascism. The solution is unmysterious : Make yourself informed.

Despite a large number of good or even excellent books in the years since then, the very best place to start is with Ibn Warraq's 1995 opus, Why I Am Not a Muslim. It is absolutely essential reading for anyone who wants to become seriously informed about Islam. Muslims are, in fact, a Fifth Column in the United States. They are a threat to all of us even though most Muslims may be personally disinclined to violence. The point is that their religion teaches and demands violence against non-Muslims and all true-believers among Muslims take this deadly seriously. Islam should have no place in American society. It is subversive by its very nature. It is unlike all other religions on Earth except for a few violent cults. However, what it is, is a large scale version of something like the Jonestown cult, or the murderous Aum Shinrikyo cult of Japan, or other criminal cults.

Exactly what will it take to wake up people to this fact ? Wasn't 9/11 enough ? Now we have a 21st century Boston massacre. Not to mention other massacres in Mumbai, London, Madrid, Bali, and still other places. Islam is the enemy religion to all other religions. It is time to acknowledge this truth and start to act accordingly.
